This is the heartbreaking story of Dakota Levi Stevens, a 10-year-old boy who tragically lost his life in a foster home. His foster mother, Jennifer Lee Wilson, 48, faces charges of reckless homicide after pressing her 340-pound weight onto Dakota, who weighed just 90 pounds, for five minutes as punishment.
Dakota had been in Wilson’s care for only a month before the incident. After misbehaving, Wilson sat on him while on the phone with a caseworker. Despite Dakota screaming, she continued to apply pressure, assuming he was pretending. By the time she checked him, his eyelids were pale, and he was unresponsive.
